Sketch N Scrap Card Sketch #17 with Simple Stories Handmade Holiday!

Hello all and happy Sunday!!! It's a bit chilly here in the sunshine state and only expected to get cooler over the next few days :-)

"Celebrate Dec 25" with Simple Stories "Handmade Holiday"

A new card sketch has been posted at Sketch N Scrap... Card Sketch # 17!!! I had so much fun playing the Simple Stories "Handmade Holiday" on my last layout that I couldn't help but make a card with it :-)

Here's a look at the new sketch:

I moved the "middle" of the sketch to the left side of my card and here is what I came up with:

Isn't it just adorable?!? This paper pad is full of elements to be cut out and that's exactly what I did!!!

I started by laying my background pieces, using my Polka Dots embossing folder for the green one. I used Pine Needles Distress Ink to ink all the edges and I really love the effect :-) I fussy cut the "Joy" and "Dec 25" pieces from the pad, and added metallic Liquid Pearls for added detail. The bow was made from remnants of a package I received over Christmas (Thanks Barb!!!) and I "hung" an ornament below it by Martha Stewart.

Here are some close-ups:

Stay tuned for my first project with Frosted Designs on the 7th!!!!

Well gang... Thanks sooo much for stopping in and have a LUCKY day :-)
